Primary | Has one carbon bonded to it |
Secondary | Two carbons bonded to it |
Teritary | Three carbons bonded to it |
Ring strain | When a ring is not happy, something about the structure inc their E and makes them for unstable and reactive |
Isopropyl | R- - - CHCH3CH3 |
Sec-butyl | R - - - CCH3CH3CH3, butyl group with bond at 2nd C |
Tert-butyl | Butyl group arranged as R - - C with 3 C's bonded to C (chicken foot) |
Isobutyl | R - - C-CHCH3CH3 |
Newman projection | Sighted down C-C bond, circle way of drawing molecule. |
Eclipse | Where bonds are in line with each other (when drawn with Newman projection, may look slightly off so info isn't lost) |
Gauche | Where bonds of foreground and background are staggered (Molecules next to one another are 60 degrees apart) |
Anti | Where foreground is 180 degrees from background (one is upside down to the other. In molecule that is staggered, ones next to each other are gauche and opposite ones are this) |
In chair formation, the _____ orientation is more stable than the ____. | Equatorial, axial |
Conformational isomers | Exact same structure, but with an orientation difference. No name change. |
Constitutional isomer | Same elems in molecule, but connected differently so different substance. Different name |
Chiral | Nonsuperimposable mirror images, has enantiomers |
Achiral | Superimposable, has no R&S or enantiomer. Has line of symmetry |
Stereocenter (chiral carbon) | Carbon with 4 different substituents (things attached to it), used to assign R&S |
R | Right/clockwise spin of chiral carbon |
S | Left/counterclockwise spin of chiral carbon |
Enantiomers | Nonsuperimposable mirror image where all R&S orientations around chiral carbons of molecule flip |
Diastereomers | Nonsuperimposable but not mirror images. Broader than enantiomers, where any combination of R&S orientations flip without all of them doing it. |
Stereoisomers | Enantiomers or diastereomers |
What should you do when you try to define a relationship between two molecules? | Define R&S (if possible) |
Equation for how many stereoisomers a molecule has: | 2^n when n=number of chiral carbons |
Meso | Compounds with chiral carbons that are not chiral overall. |
Fischer Projections | horizontal lines proceed towards viewer and vertical away, with stereocenters being the intersection of them. |
To make a enantiomer from a Fischer projection: | Flip sections to other sides |
A double bond makes something a _____ priority in R&S | Higher |
Arrhenius acid | Compound that increases concentration of H+ in aq soln |
Curved arrows | Show where e- pairs go in chemical reactions |
Keq | [C][D]/[A][B] |
Ka | [H3O+][A-]/[HA] |
Higher the pKa, the _____ the acid | Weaker |
What is the periodic trend for acidity? | The easier something is to separate from H, higher the acidity. So higher the electronegativity, easier it is to separate (greater acidity). Also, the bigger the atom (down column), the easier to separate |
The greater _____ structures of a molecule, the stronger the acid. | Resonance |
